Hopefully 3 but I actually see 6 happening tbh and that's sad.
please vote on which one do you think would likely to happen or choose one that you want to happen

One will fixate on training so much that he forgets about everything else. The other is always seen as robotic and emotionless because he planned out all his conversation responses in advance. They are both going to beat you up while holding hands
This post is going to reiterate two things: 1) 'Mudblood' is NOT a racist term, contrary to popular Snater fanon belief, and 2) Why Severus wasn't actually wholeheartedly devoted to the pureblood ideology.
'Mudblood' is a classist term, even a bloodist one, not a racist one. A racist term would indicate prejudice between magical and non-magical folk, or creature such as Goblins and House Elves. Mudblood ('dirty blood') is more akin to a class status based on your percentage of magical blood, which also includes Half-Bloods. It is a prejudice term, yes, but not a racist one. Mudblood is no where near the equivalent of the N-word, which has more horrific historical implications than it does of the equivalent in the magical world, which should not even be comparable. Anyone who compares Mudblood to the N-word is well off the mark, and in fact vile to those still suffering the actual implications of racism in the real world. Please never compare real world issues to magical, fictional ones.
2. Severus Snape was never wholeheartedly devoted to the cause. "As he moved up the school, he gathered about him a group of dedicated friends; I call them that, for want of a better term, although as I have already indicated, Riddle undoubtedly felt no affection for any of them. This group had a kind of dark glamour within the castle. They were a motley collection; a mixture of the weak seeking protection, the ambitious seeking some shared glory, and the thuggish gravitating toward a leader who could show them more refined forms of cruelty. In other words, they were the forerunners of the Death Eaters, and indeed some of them became the first Death Eaters after leaving Hogwarts." - HBP
The Death Eaters were not just about blood purity, but about power and domination. There was more than one reason why vulnerable people would join such a cause, and it wasn't always because they actually believed in pureblood supremacy. Which, given the ratio of actual remaining pureblood families, doesn't leave much to be desired. Hell, even Voldemort himself posed a pureblood, when he wasn't.
Reasons Severus wasn’t as magically prejudiced and not wholeheartedly in the belief of the pureblood ideology, as many detractors claim:
He willfully befriended and remained friends with a Muggleborn for about six-seven years of his life, during which that time was overlapped those years rooming with the likes of Avery and Mulciber.
He gives himself the name of Half-Blood Prince. No one immersed within the pureblood ideology would acknowledge he was half-anything, thus implying he was comfortable with the idea of being a half blood and his Muggle blood to an extent. If he truly loathed the Muggle side of him, he would never have named himself as such.
We have been told Severus was calling 'everyone of Lily's birth a Mudblood', but how much of this was actually true/exaggerated, and how ingrained in the ideology was Severus at this point? No one that prejudiced against Muggleborns (supposedly) would still remain friends with one, especially at the same time he was rooming with pureblood Slytherins, including Lucius (during the time he was still in Hogwarts). Severus has a knack for blending in where he needs to, so rooming with such Slytherins would invoke more of the typical cunning for self-preservation. Since we have no other evidence he was deeply rooted in the ideology, I believe he did so to ensure he wasn't bullied and attacked by his own for going against those beliefs, so he hurled Mudblood around as protection whilst he was with them.
We’ve only seen Severus interact with two Muggles – Petunia, who showed disdain for him from the get-go and mocked his appearance, and his father Tobias, who abused his mother, and most likely him.
He was friends with Charity Burbage – Although we don’t know what her blood status was, she taught Muggle Studies. By Voldemort’s standards, she was a blood traitor.
Severus is one of the rare magical folk we see in this series who is never fully integrated into the magical world. He still lived in his house in a Muggle suburb, once inherited by his Muggle father. His neighbors were likely Muggles.
He berates a portrait for referring to Hermione Granger as a Mudblood, when no one else was around to witness it.
He was willing to immediately defect from the Death Eaters, to approach his enemy, to plea for the life of Lily, a Muggleborn he has known since childhood, after spending the previous two years a Death Eater.
Severus may have a difficult past with certain Muggles he has had the misfortune of interacting with, but given what we know of him and what I've outlined above, he was never truly dedicated to the ideology.
He sought security, dominance, knowledge and power, not the purification of a world with anyone not pure of blood.
Because after all - Voldemort was recruiting werewolves and giants to his cause, along with Half-Bloods, and yes, even Muggleborns. Because we know he even asked Lily to join them.
Voldemort recruited those who were useful to him, regardless of race and blood.

sev hit tweet hes so famous
ive seen some theorists on reddit saying that the crystal won't make a comeback, and was simply there to showcase Stolas realizing Blitz was "using" him, because if IMP was running, Blitz was probably "using" Verosika as well ( as she has one herself )
Personally, I dont think Viv would put so much attention on it, plus have Stolas sing about their relationship being a 'comfortable lie' only to abandon it. Its the most plausible way for them to officially end their relationship, and im not sure how she will showcase Stolas' 'moving on' if she doesnt break them up sexually, what do yall think
No one has done this with them so I did it myself
@keister-meister Exactly. The hcs that erase his backstory ( like you said , Extremely loving Eileen and the pureblood hcs) are some of THE most irritating hcs cause imo they take away from who he is and why he acts the way he does.
"Severus TOBIAS Snape" irritates me to no end lmao
Can’t stop thinking about how Stolas went from this:
To this:
😢 like he was so crushed from the “date” with Blitz and getting rejected that he drank until he passed out on the floor 💔
He is undeniably heartbroken…..plus we saw that he is taking some kind of medication (anti-depressants?) and it isn’t the first time he’s used alcohol as a coping mechanism
It just makes me so sad 😭
More passionate than hope, far deeper than despair.Caribbean, 21.
